The engine looks like a Swiwin SW400Pro / a tiny bit under 100lbf thrust a turbojet for large RC models.

Russia purchased American Swiwin engines for jet Shaheds, — The Insider. In 2025, SW400PRO and SW240B engines worth about $300,000 were delivered to the Russian Federation from China. Customs documents indicate that the company "Angar-22" acquired them for research and development work — disassembly and study, i.e., reverse engineering.

@PBS_GRP is right, this is not even near being the same engine. If the SW400pro was recovered from the Geran-3 drones it was not a PBS TJ40-G2 engine. The SW400pro engine is only 341.2mm long (including the 3d print) while the PBS TJ40-G2 is 373mm long.

As a science-fiction enthusiast, I love the @Volonaut Airbike. And as an aerospace engineer, I always want to know how flight vehicles are working. So I did a simple analysis on 1 May 2025 and found out that it is indeed a feasible design based on six small SWIWIN SW400PRO jet turbine with each having a static thrust of up to 40 kg. These turbines are from China. Unfortunately, @TomaszPatan removed me from his linkedin network and was obviously unhappy about my post. But why man? You just applied physics and used off-the-shelf components from China. Each turbine just costs about 6,000 USD. So the overall material cost is less than 50,000 USD. Okay, the "secret" is the flight control but that's no real magick for an advanced control engineer. Today, engineers at @SpaceX can even balance and capture huge rockets of the size of skyscrapers. The #Volonaut is very cool. But it is no real speederbike with a compact fusion reactor to power magnetoplasma-jet engines for hours and more. No, it can just fly with mini jet turbines and has only an endurance of three to seven minutes according to my first analysis from May 2025. We at @ElectroFluidSys tems work on the basics for future Star Wars technologies. One day, we will really have compact fusion reactors which will even work at high atmospheric pressures. One day, we will have novel air-breathing magnetoplasma jet engines which will replace modern jet engines and bring us from ground to space. And one day, we will also have warping plasma-soliton drives to reach out to the stars and beyond when we stop being greedy and running crazy on earth. But so far, we start with jet engines and continue with plasma hybrids before we can go ahead with real Star Wars Tech as we know on the Millenium Falcon for instance. For now, Electrofluidsystems also work on a jet powered manned flying "hypercar". We released the new startup name on 20 May 2025: @PlasmaAero will be promoting the Plasma Falcon and Plasma Ray series. We preferred Western jet turbines. But after the release of the Volonaut, I also contacted #SWIWIN and had promptly received 3D STEP models for the SW400PRO and SW800PRO to check the system integration. Maybe it is okay to charge first customers with 880,000 USD to build up a new company. So they may act as business angels with no shares. But we should always keep in mind that it is 18 times higher than the real material cost. So the first Volonaut just has a a price of a special edition @Ferrari. A special edition motorbike would usually not cost more than 220,000 USD. Maybe the first Volonaut is overpriced by factor 4 even when we consider costs for development and engineering. The final price could be around 110,000 USD. Anything else would simply cause the development of better variants made in China. A Chinese competitor could even sell it for prices below 88,000 USD later on. But in any case, it would be amazing to fly a Volonaut over the sea on a cool beach. That's less risky and might be the first application when prices fall far below 100,000 USD. #NBC @NBCNews #Volonaut #FutureTech #VolonautAirbike #StarWars #Speederbike #ScienceFiction --- That was my analysis from 1 May 2025 which I had later deleted from the Electrofluidsystems page here but kept it posted on linkedin: linkedin.com/feed/update/urn… Feasibility Analysis of the Volonaut Airbike - the Star Wars Inspired Future Personal Hoverbike Just analyzed the Star Wars inspired futuristic @Volonaut airbike by @TomaszPatan. It is indeed a genius and feasible design based on six small SWIWIN SW400PRO jet turbines with each having a static thrust of up to 40 kg. In two posts from 2022, we see how Tomasz keeps such an engine with just 146 mm diameter and 342 mm length in his hand and uses the hashtag #Volonaut. Tomasz obviously designed the first single seater prototype with a maximum take-off weight of about 150 kg. That's corresponding with six SW400PRO engines running at medium power with each having 25 kg static thrust. Each of the three jet vectors may slightly point outwards. The futuristic vehicle might be controlled in a similar way like a modern multicopter with six rotors. The air inlets are just beside and under the seat. So air suction via small holes or perforation might act as a virtual "seat belt". The pilot and a rescued person would be just sucked onto the seat. In the future, additional lift augmentation and extended agility might be possible by using fluidic jets and fluidic thrust vectoring. These are also key technologies which we are discussing regarding 6th-generation aircrafts. So far, the overall thrust generated by those six lightweight jet engines with each having about four kilograms seems to be more than sufficient to lift up to 240 kg when necessary. And this would enable rescue missions but also short fun flights with a second person. The overall flight time should be limited to three to seven minutes depending on the overall weight of the pilot and second person. Additional lift or lift augmentation might exist as air around and between the engines would be accelerated and mixed with the fast, hot jets. We at @ElectroFluidSys tems work on a futuristic flying hypercar named #PlasmaRay with a span width of 6.66 meters. It can accelerate as fast as a modern hypercar and reach speeds up to 300 km/h. The PlasmaRay 6.66 can carry up to 6 passengers and is powered by 14 JetCat P1000-PRO jet engines for vertical take-off and landing and 4 engines for horizontal flight. Each engine has 110 kg static thrust. A jet pack of 14 engines can lift up to 1540 kg. Alternatively, 20 SWIWIN SW800PRO jet engines with each having up to 80 kg static thrust can be used for vertical take-off and landing. We may release more details and the new startup name on 20 May 2025. It was 20 May 1933, when the provinces of Mersin and İçel were merged. The new province was named "İçel" and the city of Mersin was made its capital. Previously the capital of the İçel province was Silifke.

Their website shows 1000g/m for the SW400pro at max power. They have a few different websites so perhaps one lists consumption at a lower power level, e.g., typical cruise power. Glad you enjoyed this as these threads take a long time to prepare.🙂

5. The engine is a model SW400pro made by the Chinese company Swiwin. It’s about 15 cm (5.8”) in diameter, giving an estimate of the drone’s size. In some photos it looks like the smaller SW300pro (possibly both are used). It burns 12 L (3.2 US gallons) of fuel in 10 minutes so cannot fly very far.
